God's Unseen Blueprint by Peculiar Medinus


 

In the tapestry of life, there are threads we never anticipate weaving, yet they become integral to our story. Much like a master weaver, God sees the complete picture when all we can glimpse is a strand. Thirteen years ago, I experienced a profound hunger for divine wisdom that I didn’t fully understand at the time. It was in the month of March, and this yearning led me to scripture and meditation. During these moments of quiet reflection, I began jotting down my thoughts in a notebook—a simple act that seemed insignificant then but would later unfold into something greater than I imagined. This blog is about how those early reflections evolved into my book, "Compass," and serves as a testament to the belief that God always has a plan.

The journey began quite unexpectedly. My path towards writing "Compass" was not charted nor foreseen. The stirring within me during those meditative sessions was undeniable yet puzzling; it drove me to engage more deeply with Biblical texts and capture my insights on paper. At the time, it felt like nothing more than personal musings—an exercise in understanding myself better through the lens of faith. However, what seemed like random scribbles were seeds planted for future harvests.

Years passed by swiftly until one day while rummaging through old belongings, fate reunited me with that forgotten notebook. Flipping through its pages filled with handwritten notes, I realised that these reflections carried timeless truths and personal revelations worth sharing beyond myself. The words written years ago resonated freshly and powerfully—as if guided by a hand beyond my own from the very beginning.

Emboldened by this rediscovery, I embarked on transforming those scattered entries into something cohesive—something others could derive meaning from too—a book named "Compass." It wasn't simply about retelling scriptural narratives; instead, it became an exploration into how God's word intersects with everyday life challenges and decisions we face today. Writing "Compass" taught me invaluable lessons about faithfulness and trust in divine timing. For fellow bloggers and creatives considering new, undefined endeavours—trust in your instincts and believe in the potential of your vision.

  1. Congratulations on your publication, Peculiar. God often leads in ways we don't expect. I am just listening to the book, Knife by Salman Rushdie, very interesting. He didn't expect to write this book as he didn't anticipate being stabbed by an extremist. People also find themselves writing books out of illness too, like Kate Nicholas' To the Ocean Floor, about her experience suffering with cancer. I wish you every success with your new book.
